Description

Mathematics is the science that emerged from the study of figures and calculating with numbers. It forms the basis of physics and the technical sciences. In addition, it already plays a prominent role in economics and finance and is gaining increasing importance in the life sciences.

The goal of the Bachelor's degree in Mathematics is to provide students with a very solid basic mathematical knowledge as well as knowledge in mathematical modelling, computer science and a non-mathematical application subject. A good prerequisite for studying mathematics is that students enjoy dealing with mathematics outside the normal school lessons. School mathematics should not cause any problems, apart from occasional arithmetical mistakes. It should be fun to discover mathematical laws and to prove them by logical conclusions. Is solving mathematical puzzles perhaps a hobby?

With an appropriate choice of the application subject, Master's programmes in computer science, an economic or technical subject are also available after the Bachelor's degree.

My studies. My Story: Mathematics

Through Ilmenau with Janine and Marcel

Janine and Marcel take you on an exciting tour of the campus of the Ilmenau University of Technology and through Ilmenau itself. They describe how they live and study in Ilmenau, give numerous leisure tips and insights into the place of study of the Ilmenau University of Technology and take you to hidden places in the city.
